Now smoking year 2010 Mac Baren Burley London Blend in a 2017 smooth, straight medium brown made in France Comoy’s Riband 298 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. The Braves-Twins game has resumed play. Sleepy Suzy is by my side. Abner the Eager is snoozin' on m'lady's lap. Just fed Daisy the Feral Princess. Dunno where Harry the Hairy is.

Did some low calorie snacking, and am smoking Sutliff Silver Quarter 175th Anniversary Blend in an undated, unbranded straight lattice meerschaum military mount with a silver cap and tapered yellow acrylic stem. Daisy the Feral Princess came in to eat, and is snoozin' on her blanket. Harry the Hairy was so happy to see me that he tried four times to climb up my leg. I held him for a few minutes as he purred, which is something he doesn't do very often. I put him down, and he kept looking up at me for a head scratch. Everytime I tried to give him one, he'd get up on his hind legs, and happily meow. He wouldn't eat until I went back inside the house. Tomato the Brave and Abner the Eager weren't here, but they will be in due course. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2016 Newminister 400 Superior Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown year 1948 Parker Super Bruyere patent 23 88/F bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. I should be able to end the day with this smoke.

@JimInks You may have to accept that Harry will be yours, as an outdoor cat, permanently. He has definitely decided you are his. I would take him in a heartbeat but I have trouble enough bringing tobacco across the border. A cat would pose a whole new set of CBSA nonsense. Even as an outdoor cat, Harry has a better "home" with you than he had before, Jim.

Having Velvet in my Gent this morning. Home sick from work, some flu-ish thing, not COVID.
 
Smoking my 'patented' Scrap Jar Mixture in a MM Night Rider. (Im-)patiently awaiting my P&C shipment of good stuff. The Mixture goes better in a cob, but still ends up tasting like finding butts on the ground and emptying them into the bowl.

If all I could have for the rest of my life is what's in that jar, I would quit the pipe and smoke cigars.
 
Smoking a Rusticated Pete 606 (straight pot), PS sweet vanilla,mug of Horton`s. I need to get started on de-greasing the kitchen walls,Hopefully, if they come clean,I won`t have to repaint the kitchen. My wife started talking about repainting the kitchen before the repainted living room was even dry! I don`t think she will be happy until I am in a wheelchair,LOL!
 
Good morning BoB!
This morning I am smoking a bowl of MM Missouri Pride in my MM cob.
My favorite modern radio show just came out with its 360th episode after 7 years of running so I'm happily listening to that.
I purchased six varieties of tobacco seeds off of an online store and when they arrive, I'm going to vacuume pack them in rice and freeze them until next spring. If I can grow my own tobacco and create something good, i'll be a happy guy. It sounds like fun!

I'm remembering Gregor Meldel's pea crossing experiments. Crossing apple varieties doesn't work in that way. I wonder if tobacco works well like peas or poorly like apples. Mendel was a great man of faith, real cool.

Near the last quarter of this bowl of pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Watching High Heat.

I hear what you're saying, but Harry needs a home where he can be inside and get the attention he deserves. I know that is what he wants, too. He's so starved for attention that it's heart breaking for us that we can't do better. Harry deserves better. We'll take care of him, but I feel our situation isn't fair to Harry.
 
I decided to switch things up a bit., Smoking a Continental king size- bent bulldog,Sutliff vanilla maple. a large glass of green tea over ice.
The kitchen walls took along time to get cleaned,but they came out great! much to my surprise,my wife agreed with me that it does not need to be repainted! I was going to start de-greasing the oak cabinets,but my back is not happy so they will have to wait until tomorrow...
 
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am smoking year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star Jamaica Blue Mountain Dark Roast, neat, is my drink.
